Jalen Rose, the 8 year old Harlem-based piano prodigy, is profiled on CBS Evening News as part of a feature story on the slow death of jazz ... all » in America.

Since perhaps his very first time ever touching a keyboard in his Harlem apartment, the young musician has enjoyed the constant support of his single mother and his neighbor, entrepreneur, Leland Hardy, who's constant requests for "tickets once you make it to Carnegie Hall" have fomented his relentless pursuit of stardom.

While jazz seeks to rebound from a dearth of broad based interest of late, it is youngsters like rose who will resuscitate America's only indigenous art form.
